Wild Water Racing is back

After a Summer hiatus, we were back racing at the Barrow on Saturday, picking up exactly where we left off. High water levels meaning a different course and the paddlers racing were Liah Boyle and Neal Underwood.

Liah came in 12th Lady (3rd J16) in a time of 16:15.20 for the altered course, 53 seconds faster than in March. She maintains her place as Britain’s top Under-16 paddler.

Neal was 22nd in the Men’s and 2nd V60, in a time of 14:31.36, 14 seconds faster than in March. Neal maintains his place as the UKs to Veteran 60 age group paddler.

Why not come and join Liah and Neal at the next Barrow Race on Saturday November 11th? For more information call/text Neal on 07951 770241 or email canoeing@thesharks.org.uk. These races are suitable for anyone who can paddle 3k.

Many Thanks to Soar Valley Canoe Club for hosting the serries.
